news live for most go this is all she was me you know our thanks for joining us first time and all made vehicles have been deployed to the presidential palace in egypt's capital cairo after a night of street battles which killed five and injured hundreds the violence started one of thousands of president morsy supporters moved in to crush this city and his opponents they stung became the bloodiest since the uprising the president began two weeks ago out of cairo based reporter troop told me the latest. right now i'm off to her square work the scenes. that have been scuffles on the square here in tahrir behind me outside the presidential palace i type reports that the caches have broken out during the day but basically we've seen very violent scenes overnight my colleague tom barton who is that reporting from the scene we're about

as close as we can get to the fighting here in central cairo near the presidential palace a few i've muslim brotherhood supporters up that is pelting stones to see morsy persisters here who are giving as much stones back to the crowds are flowing to and fro injuries are being carried back when their stores with head wounds and other wounds from the flying stones moments of cat tails are being thrown the buildings where they set your alarm set on the back so it is an immensely violent situation even just send it from an earlier in the day when the players who are supporters arrived at the un to you know see a protest has come to dismantle that i'm attached to them this is what the results are going to take. place in the week i want to come statement. in the streets how the been any signs of violence outside cairo and we're seeing violence in other cities like a series. in particular the headquarters of the muslim brotherhood's have been

attacked which is that which has already happened last week during these clashes between rival protest groups following more scenes what they call power grab concessions that gratian we would himself sweeping powers and of course the constitution which is being put to referendum your supposedly next week which many of the opposition groups sees it to see that president morsi has yet to come forward and address his opposition which has been one of the major criticisms of him in addition there's been some reaction from his aides several members of the presidential committee have quit in protest of this in addition we've had reports he says and. why is it the interior ministry is calling this a civil war although i think this is probably an overstatement but definitely we are seeing unprecedented levels of violence between citizens including possibly you supplied ammunition and definitely some guns. author and journalist ramzy baroud says the unrest is a fallout from last year's revolution which has taken on

a life of its. i think what's happened in egypt is not revolution if it's not civil war it's certainly not revolution the revolution in the popular sense we haven't really seen that what is underway in egypt is that the. those who brought the revolution and those who've succeeded along with the revolution to achieve many of its objectives are now divided and now they are divided around political and partly ideological principles it's not exactly value driven it's politically driven type of clashes it's not a revolution but rather the revolution is right now feeding on itself and it's eating its own children in my opinion in order for the political elites for various political parties to concentrate their power and their hold over power in egypt. fear isn't there and the headlines of a serious conflict in chemical weapons behinds late in the for

a weather report on the nerve agent rumors raising for the media which critics say is another times to have a greater sympathy and buy in for the rebel. that's coming up later this hour but now there was a frosty atmosphere between israel's prime minister binyamin netanyahu and one of his closest european allies the german chancellor angela merkel at their annual meeting in berlin netanyahu said he was disappointed over germany's choice to abstain on palestine statehood bed in the un general assembly palestine was run to nonmember observer state status at the end of november with nearly all of europe is porting or eight or abstaining less than a day after that israel announced plans to build three thousand homes and palestinian land a move condemned by germany and the rest of the. merkel was has warned netanyahu here risks political isolation and massive military trade deals between the two states are still expected to go ahead on the other hand free trade with the you is

something that supposedly sovereign palestine isn't allowed to have peace or all of the reports. of israel except this is a does real this is the jordan valley in the west bank and this farm is deemed illegal under international law the european union imports around three hundred million dollars worth of products are near each year now a group of twenty two n.g.o.s from across europe is looking to highlight the issue and it's published a report in which it claims imports make the settlements viable because they are produced in illegal settlements which are contrary to international humanitarian law should be bound to all to the european union now if this is not possible at least the consumers has to have the possibility to. decide for themselves if they want to buy. products which have been produced in illegal settlements your c. farms this land is much concerned by the thoughts of european n.g.o.s he says he's

here because his government told him it was ok to be here. because i was told here you can. and so i circled where i was told i could it's more the state of israel told me time to go i'll go i'm told i'm an occupier when i got here there was nothing if you show codes and we made it. in denmark and the united kingdom goods coming from settlements in the west bank already has to be marked differently to denote that it's not from israel the collective n.g.o.s want to see this implemented europe wide here in europe there are many people with ties to the middle east region and they want to make sure they know exactly where their produce is coming from. are you sure this comes from spain. rainier is a palestinian living in germany she has family in the west bank and says the israeli checkpoints mean palestinian farmers are losing out to the circle as even

even the few things they get to jordan they really checkpoints keep them at the checkpoints for days. and then you can't even vegetables anymore those behind the report into trade between the settlements in europe say they aren't trying to organize any kind of witch hunt we're not talking about boycotting jews over here we're not talking about even boycotting israel itself we're talking about making a difference differentiating between. legal israeli products which should be bought by european citizens as much as the core so short and certain products which are totally illegal and should be banned and people should not buy. information that europeans keep stored online could be accessed by u.s. law enforcement agencies that's according to a report issued by one university in amsterdam which reveals the anti terrorism patriot act gives washington legal grounds to bypass europe's privacy laws and for

more now are joined live by one of the authors of the report back axle hello so explain to us how exactly does this work how can this you are slow affect citizens in other countries well as soon as a company conducts systematic business in the united states it has to comply with us laws that means. well united states authorities under its laws can request data that is stored in a cloud what do you make of this u.s. policy of extraterritorial laws in terms of international rights does anyone actually a other country's legislature. well these companies do and that's exactly where sort of. the wide gap in legal protection is that we found in our report so normally in an offline world you would have cooperation between governments that

would respect international human rights standards but as these companies in the cloud are often conducting systematic best business and united states direct access is warrant we know these so-called cloud technology is where the focus of your research or even governments in might keep their data on service on the service in a cloud so does this mean the u.s. has in fact legalized the knowledge. that's an interesting perspective well. foresman and intelligence agency access to data will exist anywhere in the world what is so interesting here is that many of these companies well and certainly the market leaders are very active in the united states in the united states so under daryl's there is direct access. and and many other places in the world privacy standards notably in europe are much stronger than in the united states and

that's where the real differences. and the womanly european countries so powerless in the face of the u.s. where it comes to protecting that citizens privacy. well because these days companies are conducting business in the united states so so there is direct access so governments and businesses n.g.o.s and consumers will actually be filing on their u.s. laws something in the online world that will be you know it's hard to realize that if you if you consider in your slime world it's always bound by national boundaries all right let's focus now only on the terrorists that supposedly off would they really benefit from keeping their deadly plans in a cloud. well those who have an interest in data confidentiality whether it's governments or or terrorists or or cyber criminals or whoever will know that the cloud is is a pretty insecure place with regard to data confidentiality so. i would assume that

well trained terrorists for example. would not store the data any clout so really regarding effectiveness you can question that. from real point of view of the best way to fix all that well all over the world including in china and russia and in europe and in in the united states internet surveillance is increasing and it's quite breakneck speed so a solution would be. to at least try and come to some international standard of how to resolve all this and what does privacy mean i know that this is a very ambitious goal but as we all move into the internet and as we all as it all becomes a part of our daily lives free speech and privacy online is becoming ever more important. right on by have from the netherlands so many thanks

indeed for sharing your views that. syria's chemical weapons arsenal is again whipping up a frenzy at least in the us media an unnamed american official has reportedly said damascus has begun its chemical stockpiles it's impossible to verify though skeptics are saying rumors are being spread intentionally to justify greater aid for rebels or even intervention meanwhile another car bomb has gone off in damascus as turmoil in syria's seeps and beyond the country's borders middle east expert dr edmund go read says syria could further inflame the entire region. the danger of what's happening in syria is that we are seeing increased emphasis on sectarian identities sectarian war. and this is likely to spread this is the danger of the syrian equation that we are likely to see an escalation of the trenches and we are likely to see years brad of this confrontation to other countries in the

region and it's going likely to take more sectarian more ideological confrontation lebanon is a very fragile country a country of money. and search area and groups jordan is another candidate turkey is also vulnerable because it faces tensions with itself and this is on top of that we are likely to see more and more of the regional powers drawn into this conflict as we are seeing international powers have been drawn into it as well. but you as a brit the chinese style in my labor scheme on its own soil but what about private prisons spending turns of billions of dollars on building stricter laws clearing the biggest companies to do better that's after the break.

i never thought i could earn a living this way. she tests small arms. building and sourced count of all the weapons she's fired over the past twelve years. i got so used to it sometimes my friends ask me to join them at the rifle range and i say no way i'm so tired of shooting. the planet's history goes from making firearms during the world war two to ballistic missiles from nuclear submarines during the cold war the bulk of the soviet industry was moved here in the 1940's to the advancing germans. so is here also became the heart of soviet military production closed off to foreigners for half a century it thrived on the massive wounds of the soviet military when the u.s.s.r. collapsed but life here was shaken to the core but some adapted to better than others. this is the fuel truck factory russia's number one truck

made for girls a look at how well the workplace is organized everything's done to make sure the workers don't waste time waiting there was so production is booming the factory has largely managed to get on to civil rails these johnsons sold around the globe hit a base a brand new be no way to be delivered to a client for seventy trucks like this one roll up the bronx conveyor belt every day look at about this things that absolutely huge. well i'm no formula one pilot but hopefully if i can get up that. i can go for a test drive. oh that was fun perhaps i should get one of these to travel to walk every morning where the cost of about forty thousand dollars i should start saving my.

this is an see welcome back while the rest of the u.s. may be struggling for work those currently a real boom of job offers for inmates in the country but state and some of the biggest private companies are now enjoying the fruits of a cheap and a resident of vailable workforce with tens of millions of dollars spent by the private prisons to keep their jails for he's going next check on takes up the story for. in the us the market for cheap labor is booming behind bars in the last fifteen years partnership between prisons and private manufacturers has increased significantly there are becoming america's very own chinese style manufacturing line behind prison walls prisons in fact advertise themselves such as an alternative to outsourcing cheap labor to china or elsewhere on the web we came across this pitch that prisons prepared to persuade private sector companies to

come and do business with them take a look. there is not enough folks that will do this type of work in this country so therefore we're bringing bringing back this industry that is starkly has been going out of this country and we're putting it you know inside the laws and it's absolutely a perfect idea. of a workforce that is not our problems are baby sitting senator always here always come to learn. your business or leave a wide variety of industries take advantage of prison labor among many other things prisoners make clothing textiles electronics furniture and even solar panels hundreds of companies have used prison labor directly or through subcontractors including microsoft boeing starbucks tory secret and others by federal tax. rate compensated up to forty percent of the way to. reduce

tax payers to howards the need to. hear everything. working prison is mandatory and the choice many inmates have is whether to work for a government run prison industry for less than a dollar an hour or private one for a minimum wage or for around six dollars unique or is a government owned corporation that uses prison labor to produce all kinds of goods mainly for other government agencies one hundred seventy five different types of products and services you see the variety listed on their. website they to partner up with private firms now last year unique course revenue nine hundred million dollars as far as private prisons are concerned two of the country's biggest prison corporations made three point three billion dollars last year alone private prisons are created in that york stock exchange they are for profit companies and the savings that they reap from using inmate labor. go to their bottom line it's money

they otherwise don't have to. keep. large prison populations and harsh sentences result in greater profits america's three major private prison companies spend around forty five million dollars over the past ten years on lobbying state and federal governments for supporting immigrant detention mandatory minimum sentences three strikes laws and other legislative measures that contribute to the growth of america's gigantic prison population one can argue about the many causes and effects of america's skyrocketing incarceration rate but since prisons became a for profit industry in the us thirty years ago the number of prisoners has gone up dramatically not to say that it was the only cause behind the spike but many argue will support of it and now with the cheap labor market expanding behind american bars one is wondering whether the justice system in the us is adopting

market values in washington i'm going to check on. the stairs this seems to be the future for britain at least where the government extended its massive cuts program for five more here is a defined finance minister waved away immediate protest saying tax hikes would help while the country's aging economy. has more now on london's proposed. well everyone now madly picking their way through the facts and figures and while was there a lot i think it is one thing that was very very clear and not so the u.k. is set to face even that mall austerity you know what they say they say this was that the u.k. economy is going to shrink by no point one percent five hundred twenty twelve now it sounds like a small amount but of course not a sign of that all important place in fact what we thing is that borrowing has gone up we think that that has risen and fallen and most crucially i think it's probably the fact that the government have made that reduction college good so we're now facing an extended austerity program is going to take its right the way three to

twenty eighteenth's a pretty gloomy outlook and that this is what we are expecting a bit of cool stuff going to really know people millions of families all across the way again to you know one thing here in the gulf this is really getting feed back then and real. a spotlight is next to the host no that's after the break you know nothing. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom heart broken is a big picture. wealthy

yes we were able to trace it back to their bosses but what's the twenty five criminals were arrested these are real crime bosses who set up a distribution network in russia but the core of the cartel is in afghanistan and some gulf countries. so question the cartel operated mostly in gulf countries again it's down in other countries in central asia and then transported drugs through some central asian countries. just got us are still stunned nor were you able to apprehend them even there like i said we arrested twenty five people so some of them were caught out say russia we have identified people abroad who arranged those deliveries and we will never put them on the wanted list of you and seek their extradition to sweden to talk about these bosses who organized all that.
